Gede Pardianto, MD, PhD
Pardianto’s Law (2017): “Technology and communication come easier and easier
overtime, however bureaucracy and regulation come harder and harder
overtime.”
 Technology changes the world forever
 Plane, train, bus, taxi, travel agent, online transporter, etc; make people moving faster
and easier
 Satellite, mobile phone, smart phone, computer, program, application, server, cellular
provider, etc; come together to ease human communication
 Information comes faster
 In F1, MotoGP, Hospital, Medical Service, Airport, Embassy, School, University,
Licensing, Legal Letter Handling, Certification, Standardization, Accreditation, Work
Proposing, Immigration, Custom, etc; everything comes harder
 For safety reason, to avoid crime and terrorism, to govern city, county and country, to
mitigate disaster, to improve the quality of service, to control fraud and corruption, for
political demand, etc; bureaucracy and regulation come harder and harder overtime
 We can do everything next year, but do we have to do it next year?
 If we can do everything now, do it now.
 Because, technology and communication tend to come easier and easier overtime
indeed, but bureaucracy and regulation come harder and harder overtime.
